The local area has a number of independent food shops, providing high quality, fresh produce. Two of note are Chapmans in Borough Green itself, for locally sourced fresh fish and seafood and Chart Farm and butchery (five minutes outside of the village) for the best chipolatas and free-range Christmas turkeys.

Design

Catherine House has a sleek, contemporary, design scheme with natural woods and a neutral palette to evoke a sense of pure Scandinavian living at its best. Clearly defined living zones have been designed with modern living firmly in mind, with full attention to every design detail to make the apartments a fantastic space to live. The designs ensure focal points of key areas. White door handles and hinges are chosen to meld in to the doors, while contemporary light switches make for a cool and modern space.

Decor

The interior design scheme makes use of a lighter, neutral colour palette to bounce natural light around and create a calming living environment, one that feels both spacious and comfortable. The wood tones add warmth and a sense of grounding to the apartments, creating a real oasis away from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

Details

The interiors of Catherine House have been designed to reflect the external architecture of the building, with wood tones adding warmth to a comfortable and classic neutral colour palette, with a real sense of bringing the outdoors in.

All the finishes have been chosen to create a sense of space and natural elegance, with a timeless sense of style.

Kitchen

The matt white kitchen is both timeless and fashion forward, with matt white worktops streamlining the spaces. Real Oak shelving works to create an open and airy feel to the kitchen, bringing a real flow and cohesion from the main living space to the kitchen.

Matt finishes bring a crisp, smart style to the kitchen with a mix of closed and open storage to give display areas for accessories to really make the home your own.

Bedroom

Fitted wardrobe areas have been designed to maximise storage in the master bedroom areas to create a calm and tranquil sleeping space.

Bathroom

The design details continue in to the bathroom areas with a real eco spa feel. Pale green tiles and wooden style flooring bring a botanical feel to the space and hidden storage behind the mirror ensures the spaces are both functional and look stunning.
